Sri Vijaya Puram, Jan 18: Dr. B. R. Ambedkar Institute of Technology (DBRAIT) organized an enriching site visit and Add on -industrial training programme for B.Tech Civil Engineering 2nd year students focusing on Pre-cast Wall Construction and Sustainable Civil Engineering Practices. The programme was conducted under Odyssey Infrastructure – Bhusan Precast at an ongoing commercial construction site at Beodnabad Panchayat.
The training aimed to bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-time industry practices by providing hands-on exposure to precast construction techniques, site execution methods, quality control measures, and environment-friendly, sustainable construction practices.
The resource person, Shri Kingshuk Bala, an alumnus of B.Tech Civil Engineering, shared his inspiring journey from a student to a successful entrepreneur. Having established his own precast manufacturing unit, he demonstrated practical aspects of site planning, precast wall installation, construction sequencing, and sustainable material usage. He also interacted with students, motivating them to explore entrepreneurship and innovation in the civil engineering sector while emphasizing the importance of sustainability in modern infrastructure development.
Students actively participated in discussions and observed live site activities, gaining valuable insights into industry-oriented skills, green construction concepts, and emerging trends in precast technology.
The entire programme was successfully organized and coordinated by Shri Altamash Mustafa, Assistant Professor (Civil), Associate Dean, and Training & Placement Coordinator, DBRAIT, whose efforts ensured meaningful industry exposure for the students. The initiative was widely appreciated by students and faculty alike for its practical relevance and career-oriented learning outcomes.
